I'm hoping that we can implement Clownfish under Ruby such that...
* Clownfish objects *are* Ruby objects.
* The Clownfish refcounting routines are made no-ops.
* A `Visit_Refs` method can be factored out of our current `Destroy` methods
which will be used for decref'ing under refcounting hosts and for the
"mark" phase of mark-and-sweep GC under Ruby (and Python).
